Jeanne (Spring) 1882

"Jeanne (Spring)" is a black and white etching on paper by French Impressionist artist Édouard Manet, created in 1882. The work depicts a woman in profile, seen from the chest up, wearing a large hat and a patterned dress. She holds an umbrella in her hand, and the background suggests a garden setting. This intimate portrait is considered a prime example of Manet's later style, which leaned heavily into the Impressionist aesthetic of soft, blurred lines and focused on capturing the fleeting essence of a moment. The work is currently on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
